While the rest of the U.S. is watching the Grammy’s, we just launched our Kickstarter Campaign! That means we have exactly 30 days to raise $20,000. By 8:48 p.m. on March 12, 2013, we need to raise every single penny or won’t get a dime. Nerve wrecking right? We know! We’ll be biting our nails for the next 30 days and hustling HARD. You can help us reach our goal by going to our Kickstarter Page, reading more about the campaign, donating and then sharing the link with all of your family and friends! In return, you’ll get cool rewards e.g. passes to the see the film, cool postcards from Amsterdam, a dinner date with the filmmakers (us) and so much more! Thanks in advance for your support.

The documentary seeks to explore both sides of the Sinterklaas/Zwarte Piet blackface tradition – and everything in between. Who wishes to change the tradition? Who wants to maintain it? And why?
